it was good.. I've been using it since I was 16. this newest update SUCKS. it's slow and glitchy way to many ads and they limit your searches to like 6 places now in order to force you to pay money. guess what, I'm deleting this app instead of paying you. *EDIT* 👇🏾 Their response to too many ads is to buy an ad free subscription service 🥴. So you created a problem to charge money to fix it? Sad 🤦🏾‍♂️

That doesn't sound right! We do not limit searches to 6, as you have mentioned. Can you give us more information at help@mapquest.com so that we can investigate. We have an ad-free subscription service, but there are no features that are behind a paywall.

Very long time user, and I wish to give this app more stars, but it has become more confusing to use. Often, the auto-nav won't run, and I ain't got time to be reading the screen for directions when I'm driving. Using a road map is far less frustrating than using the app. I was about to delete this app forever, but just got an update that "seems" to have fixed the problem, so will run it awhile again. I prefer the old UI setup, and i hope i dont have further issues, because the G app is worse.

It was a great app before you forcibly upgraded it on me. Hint: if it's not broken, don't fix it. It's virtually impossible to exit out of an ongoing route, leaving the app to run continuously in the background, drain my battery, and constantly sending me icons/messages of my route, which I can't exit out of. I've uninstalled the app, then reinstalled it. To no avail. Go back to the original version. It worked.
